I've been profiling local and independent coffee shops in the metro Atlanta area on the website and blog for about five years. This project has allowed me to build relationships with coffee shop owners, baristas, and coffee enthusiasts in the city. It's been rewarding to be able to engage with this passionate community (via the newsletter/blog) but also via in-person events such as a coffee crawl I recently organized and led.
Although the topic of coffee / coffee shops is niche, writing about the places I visit, I am able to touch upon my diverse set of interests (art, photography, technology, design, reading, writing, general curation, psychology, philosophy, history, etc.)
Really neat! I was a daily customer to One Cafe in the Flatiron building downtown for a few years. Big fan of their cold brew (before it was widely available).
